Sigma 24-70mm f/2.8 Art

This update to Sigma’s stalwart 24-70mm
features a new optical stabilizer and a metal
lens barrel with a weather-sealed mount.

It boasts a retooled hypersonic motor with
1. 3 times the torque for its predecessor to
improve AF performance. There’s full-time
manual focus over-ride and nine aperture
blades that stop down to f/22.

This updated full-frame lens adds
a stepping motor for improved AF
performance. Vibration Reduction has
also been boosted and now delivers 4. 5
stops of shake reduction. Like all newer
NIKKOR lenses, the 70-300mm features
an electronic diaphragm for consistent
exposure control during high-speed
shooting and video recording. It can
focus on objects as close as 3. 9 feet with
a magnification ratio of 0.25x. The lens is
dust- and moisture-resistant and features
a nine-blade aperture.

Zeiss Milvus 35mm f/1.4

This full-frame lens sports an optical design
that Zeiss claims delivers “practically no
chromatic aberration.” Hooray. Available in
Canon and Nikon mounts, the 35mm lens
stops down to f/16 and can focus on objects
as close as 11. 8 inches from the front of the
lens. It’s a manual focus lens with a focus
ring that rotates 227 degrees for slow focus
pulls. It features Zeiss T* anti-reflective
coating and is weather-sealed. The Nikon
mount can have its aperture de-clicked for
smooth exposure transitions.
